Overview

What makes two become one? Family background and social status? Expectations and opinions of others? Good timing? Or their physical attraction for each other? Internationally acclaimed artist Chloe Tung Hoi-Yiu makes use of her die-hard supporter Yu Chun-Tung to stop the gossip about her love affairs and thus to turn around her image. After spending a lot of time with him, she gets to know the taste of true love for the first time. Although the relationship is nothing more than just a show, she finds it impossible to leave this ordinary man. As they negotiate the travails of life and love, Chloe and Chun-Tung become intertwined with the lives of three other couples. What is love anyway? An excuse or a weakness? A duty or a punishment?

Tiefenbach plays Lucky Carroway, a recent university graduate and writer who finds that life after university is not as perfect as it might seem. The show begins shortly after his valedictorian speech, when his world comes crashing down after his first book is rejected by his literary agent. His life becomes worse as his arch-nemesis becomes a published author who appears in "Vancouver Magazine's" top 10 writers list. He becomes a recluse who constantly wears his graduation robe and plays video games all day. However, he quickly recovers by writing a vicious 'letter to the editor' to Vancouver Magazine where he decries the selection of his arch-nemesis as a top 10 writer. This letter angers so many readers of the magazine that they offer him a job as an anonymous "Hate Male" article writer. He lives in downtown Vancouver in a flat with several friends. Emily Hampshire plays a recent law school graduate named Iona Goldenthal, a binge drinker who must deal with the chauvinistic world of law.
